For Deku

Chapter 2

(Don't start the song yet!)
(My POV)

I woke up on the couch with a soft blanket draped over me. I looked at my phone and saw that it was already noon. Guess I'm not used to the time change yet, I thought. I got up and walked into the kitchen seeing Deku and I'm guessing Tamaki up and having a pleasant conversation.

"Good morning, Sleepyhead," Deku smiled.

"Morning," I said sleepily. I stretched and walked over to them.

"Oh, this is Tamaki!" He said gesturing to the other boy. I waved a little and he returned it.

"Hey, I was thinking we could take a walk and I'll show you around!" He said excitedly.

"Ok, I'll go get changed," I said. I turned and walked to my room. I got out a pair of shorts and a low-cut black shirt. I put them on along with my black converse and Jacksepticeye hat. I ran back to Deku and asked if he was ready. He nodded and we left the house. He showed me around the small town. It had a coffee shop and a clothing store which we stopped at. We also saw a mall that we walked through. By the time we were done the stars were starting to come out. We went to a nearby meadow and sat in the grass watching the stars.

"It was fun today," I said.

"Yeah, I had a blast," he smiled then his face suddenly fell. He grabbed my hand and ran off into the meadow with me close behind.

"What's wrong? Why are we running?" I asked.

"Don't you hear the laughter! It's them!" He yelled. I knew exactly who he was talking about and I ran with him like my life depended on it. We eventually ran out of breath and stopped. It was silent for a moment until we once again heard the deep laughter. It wasn't just one man it sounded like there were maybe 7 men. One stepped into the clearing followed by the rest. I couldn't see their faces but I didn't care. I could see the intense fear on Deku's face and I hated it. They got closer and I jumped in front of Deku and held up my arms to shield him from them.

"Stay away from him," I growled. They laughed in response.

"Aww, the boy got himself a little mouse to defend him. How cute," they cooed. This just enraged me furthered and I kicked one of them where the sun don't shine. He staggered back holding his manhood and I charged towards them. I grabbed a large pocket knife out of my back pocket and stabbed one of them in the chest. He fell to the ground as I leaped back and slit another's throat. One charged at me and I plunged my knife into his chest and swung myself onto his shoulders and stabbed the back of his head. His body fell to the ground and the others stared at me in shock. I took a intimidating step towards them and they fled into the woods from which they had came. I looked back at Deku who stared at me in shock, tears falling down his face. He eventually collapsed into the ground in a sobbing mess and I knelt down in front of him. I looked at him for a moment and pulled him into a hug as I gently rubbed his back for comfort. I normally wouldn't do this for people who I technically just met but Deku was my best friend and I hated seeing him like this. I continued to rub his back as I started to softly sing.

(Start song)

I remember tears streaming down your face when I said I'd never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed you light
I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

Don't you dare look out your window, Darling everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby, even when the music's gone, gone

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

Just close your eyes, you'll be alright
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

As I finished singing the sun finally started to come up. Tamaki came into the clearing and knelt down as well. I released Deku from the hug and Tamaki pulled him in for a hug as well, but for a much shorter period. We all got up and walked back to the house in silence, except for the occasional sob. We never saw the rest of the men and the others bodies were recovered. They weren't able to link any evidence to me though. I stayed in Japan but visited my hometown every once in awhile. My parents were not happy that I left though, but when they realized why I did they accepted it. To this day we are all living happily ever after.
